Fried Meat Patties
600 g mixed minced meat

1 potato
250 g Parmigiano Reggiano, grated
200 g breadcrumbs
1 l sunflower oil
Nutmeg, to taste
Chopped parsley, to taste
Salt, to taste

Peel, wash and boil the potato. Drain and mash. In a bowl, combine the meat with the egg, the mashed potato, Parmigiano Reggiano, 150 g breadcrumbs, parsley, nutmeg and salt.

Roll into small balls and flatten. Coat the patties with the remaining breadcrumbs. Deep fry them until golden (approximately 3-4 minutes, depending on the size of the patties and of the pan), turn them over to cook both sides. Place patties on kitchen paper to remove excess oil. To check the temperature of the oil, use a little piece of bread or touch the bottom of the pan with a fork: if small bubbles form around the fork, the oil is ready for frying.
